I have T Racks 5 mixing /mastering plug ins , this has a master match plug in, which is what I use sometimes to give some guidance.

This, this is very important if you miss out on conversation

I'm not quite as bad but rely on semifocals, and always struggled with Ishihara test

Thanks chaps nothing wrong with Ziggy Stardust. And don't you start with black white TV. I use reference songs and even have master match software unfortunately it's not be all end all. Luckily my missus is a hearing aid professional so getting it sorted won't be an issue, but the I will not have excuse not to hear what she says 😃 suppose every cloud....

I am certain that some of you veteran musicians or bedroom musicians sport a pair of hearing aids. Whether anyone chooses to wear them it's a personal choice. I have noticed that I don't respond well to certain frequencies when someone talks to me from a distance or from a different room, phone lines can be troublesome if the reception is bad. This may obviously have an impact how I mix my music and my end result often ends up muddy regardless using eq, comp, panning etc. etc. Surely if I had deficiency hearing certain frequencies, hearing aids would or could potentially improve my mixing/ mastering. Any thoughts?

Midlands is a bit far for me.

The guitar sits collecting dust at my parents house. Has done for over 25 years. Will retrieve it eventually.

I was similar age, and liked the 1991 Metallica Black album era, so I modified the Ricky copy to match Newsteds bass. Still have it.

I used to have a legit Yolana D bass Czechoslovakian made bass that was a copy of a Rickenbacker. I carved it to a different shape and to this day I regret it.

Pork pie is my favourite

Agreed, Three music stores closed in Kent's biggest town. I didn't realise last one closed months ago. I would go and buy small things every now and again. I bought amp, guitar, endless strings, picks, etc. Feel sorry for them, really down to earth staff and the owner. Two other that closed a few years back had impressive stock of amps , speakers, drums , anything you wanted. if not in stock ordered it. Real shame and sad times.

Have you paid with credit card, was it over a certain amount that you're covered for?

eBay customer services are difficult to deal with. They have an extremely robotic approach, no common sense.

Not a fan

I am not a big fan of effects in the bass, maybe a DI pedal or small compact TC compressor. Have you tried switching one off or do combinations to find the culprit. Maybe a different order of plugging may help. When I use guitar effect, I'd put noise gate as last after e.g. chorus, delay, reverb. Have you tried FX return?

You shook me all night long - ACDC

I have considered six string ,but opted for an electric guitar. On the serious note, I'd like one at least to test it.

Welcome, what's your favourite day in the week then.

I think Killers and the Seventh Son are both well mixed, they seem to sound crystal clear. Although Piece of Mind is probably my overall favourite as it sounds raw mid range to me, drums are outstanding. When I first heard Seventh Son on LP a day or two after released I was already an established Maiden fan, but it was just like new dimension and still is. The quality of the sound has never been repeated and definitely not after Martin Burch' s departure.

Any good for metal? I'll get my coat

Personally, I'd give it a go and would blend in the sound with pick up sound. Depends
